在药房At The Pharmacy
IVY: Excuse me. I need to refill this prescription.
KAREN: It says on the bottle here that you can have two refills.
IVY: Yes, I need to refill it today.
KAREN: Alright.
I'm sorry, Miss. According to our file, this prescription has already been refilled twice.
IVY: I was worried about that.
I couldn't remember if I had it refilled twice yet or not.
KAREN: Well, it looks like you have.
You will need to see your doctor to get a new prescription.
IVY: Listen. This is an emergency.
I tried to call my doctor, but he is out of town. So I can't see him in time.
I need this medicine. It is for skin condition. I've run out.
Can you just refill it once more?
KAREN: I'm sorry, Miss. We can't do it. We must follow the prescription.
And this prescription has run out.
IVY: But I need it. Please. Refill it for me just this once.
I can go to the doctor around ten days from now. Then I'll have another prescription.
KAREN: Miss, I understand your problem.
But it is against the law for us to sell certain medicines without a prescription.
It's the law. I can't do anything about it.
We never sell medicine unless we have a proper prescription. Never.
IVY: But I have a prescription. I just need more of it.
KAREN: A prescription must be valid. It cannot be an expired prescription.
I'm sorry, Miss. It's the law.
You will have to find another doctor who will prescribe this for you.
IVY: Oh, it will be so expensive!
I have a special medical plan, and I can only see one doctor.
It will cost me a lot of money to see another doctor.
KAREN: Miss, I just can't help you on this.
I'm a pharmacist, not a doctor. And there are other customers I need to help now.
I know it is frustrating when this happens.
But there is nothing I can do about it. I'm sorry.
IVY: This is ridiculous! In Taiwan, it is much easier to get medicine when I need it.
KAREN: Maybe that's true. I don't know.
But I'm sure in Taiwan you have prescriptions too.
爱薇:抱歉,我要重新加满这瓶药。
凯伦:瓶子上写着你可以重新加满两次。
爱薇:是的,今天我需要重新加满。
凯伦:好的。
小姐,抱歉,根据我们的记录,这个处方药已经加过两次了。
爱薇:我就是担心那点。
我不记得是不是加过两次了。
凯伦:看起来是的。
你要去看医生拿新的处方。
爱薇:你听我说,这是紧急状况。
我找过医生,但是他出城了。所以无法及时看到他。
我需要这个药,这是皮肤药,我用完了。
你就帮我加满一次好吗?
凯伦:小姐,很抱歉,我不能这样做,我必须照着处方。
而你已经用完这个处方药了。
爱薇:但是我还需要,拜托,帮我加满这次就好。
大约十天后我会去看医生,然后再要一次处方。
凯伦:小姐,我了解你的问题。
但是没有处方就卖药是违法的。
这是规定,我帮不上忙。
没有处方我们绝对不能卖药,绝对不行。
爱薇:但是我有处方啊,我只是还要一点。
凯伦:处方必须是有效的,不可以是过期的处方。
小姐,抱歉,这是规定。
你要再找别的医生开这个处方给你。
爱薇:那会很贵。
我有特殊的医疗方案,只能看一位医生。
看别的医生要花很多钱。
凯伦:小姐,我无法帮你这个忙。
我是药剂师不是医生,现在我还有其它客人要忙。
我知道这种事很令人失望。
但是我不能做什么,我很抱歉。
爱薇:这真是荒谬!在台湾有需要时很容易拿到药的。
凯伦:可能是真的,我不知道。
但是我确定在台湾也要有处方。 |
